Happy Easter to everybody!
This year I’m going to set a misting system to cool plants during hot days.
What do you think should be the best temperature to start it? Probably 90F?
How long should the misting last to properly cool pants, but avoid fungal infections?
Thanks in advance

Ive got mine to come on every 5 to 10 minutes during hot weather and to run from 20 to 59 seconds. The plants adjust to their environment so its better leaner and meaner.On warm years we have a lot of highs 95 degrees + with under 20% humidity.

Russ pugh was saying it comes on every 2 minutes for like 20 seconds or something like that.I guess it depends on your humidity.
